How Unistrut Midwest Supports General Contractors

September 23, 2025

No matter the challenge to be solved or application implemented, many of the projects that the Unistrut Midwest team tackles have one thing in common: working as a close partner to general contractors. Our goal is to be a general contractor's first choice for a reliable trade partner. To do this, we leverage our decades of experience, our dedication to clear and open communication, and the undeniable quality of our work.

Bringing Our Industry Experience to General Contractors 

In secondary construction, there are few things more valuable than industry experience. Many of the members of Unistrut Midwest have decades of experience not only in the field but at Unistrut Midwest specifically. Those years of on-the-job training mean that our team has seen and solved it all.  

The general contractors that we work with today benefit from the lessons we learned yesterday. Every unforeseen issue we encounter creates an opportunity to further our expertise and bring that solution to the next project. Each challenge that we solve creates another tool in our arsenal, which has allowed the Unistrut Midwest team to truly become experts in our industry.  

Maintaining Open Communication with General Contractors 

One of the most effective ways we become a trusted resource for general contractors is through our communication. We emphasize frequent and transparent communication with our partners, and that starts at the very beginning with our estimation process.  

Submitting an estimate is more than just presenting a solution; we view it as our first opportunity to establish a clear line of communication. By fostering aligned goals from day one, we begin each project on the same page as our partners and strive to keep that mutual understanding as the project continues.  

Of course, requirements or conditions can change in even the most well planned project. This is where our commitment to open communication really shines. We don’t shy away from the difficult conversations, but we also never bring a problem to  a general contractor without also offering a solution. Keeping everyone informed avoids miscommunications that can slow down progress.  

Delivering a High Quality of Work to General Contractors 

Our industry experience and commitment to open communication lead to an exceptional quality of work. With years of problem solving and feedback from partners under our belts, we take pride in knowing that we are doing the right thing the right way. By closely following approved drawings, emphasizing accuracy in the field, and never cutting corners, we know we can deliver a high quality solution to our general contractors.  

Quality work extends beyond the physical solution to the experience of working with the Unistrut Midwest team as well. We know that we are just one partner in a team of trades, all with different priorities and responsibilities on the overall project. To prevent backups on a work site, our team focuses on getting in, performing our tasks, and getting out. By delivering our solutions efficiently, we can allow other partners to continue their work in a timely manner as well. We hear time and again that general contractors appreciate our commitment to quality work while doing our part to keep the overall project on schedule.
